The FFmpeg snap

Review FFmpeg build options

Most --enable-* flags used in the snap of FFmpeg are consistent with what's used in the .deb of FFmpeg in Ubuntu. Determine which of the following are generally useful and enable them:

• --enable-ladspa
• --enable-libaom (core20)
• --enable-libjack
• --enable-libmysofa
• --enable-libvidstab (core20)
• --enable-lv2
• --enable-libiec61883 (FTBFS on core18)
• --enable-frei0r

Raspberry Pi

Add support for the Raspberry Pi in the armhf and arm64 builds.

[libraspberrypi-dev] will need including in the build process but doesn't need to to be primed. This package adds the headers that make it possible to enable --enable-mmal (Broadcom Multi-Media Abstraction Layer) and --enable-omx-rpi.
